Nooo! what a tragic waste! Unless of course you were collected safely with Wash's careful piloting moments after you leaped (or is it lept??) into oblivion!
I would've followed but i'm a bit busy today, things to do, cheese to melt etc etc.
Do you have the eyes of a Hawk? Ears of the Wolf, or Speed of a Puma?? I guess the first judging by your name!
Be careful out there and mind those ledges!

Whoa... Sundance, was that a Bravestar reference?
Marshall Bravestar battles the evil Tex Hex (Tex Hex! Cause he's Texan and Hexish!)with the aid of his trash talking robot horse and a small gopher man type thing called Fuzz!
Somebody should make a pilot of that beauty!NOTIFY: Y | REPLY | REPLY WITH QUOTE | PERMALINK | TOP | HOME
But Bravestarr... a horse with a futuristic blunderbuss... what were they on?
Firefly hasn't really influenced my viewing habits, as I don't watch TV at all any more, aside from occasionally to catch the news. Although it has restored my faith in the American media. What with Buffy (teen soap opera with female eye candy and some weird jazzy bits), Angel (the same, but with male eye candy on every episode) and Lost (adult soap opera with a load of cheesy Lord of the Flies references), I could've sworn that they were all on the way to the special level of Hell. But now I try to keep an ear to the ground.
And yes, I'm aware I'm a heretic for slamming other Jossviewing, but that's the way I feel. Also, slightly more forgiving of the above; they were growing pains before the birth of Firefly.
Oh, and does the term "soap opera" exist in the American TV vocab? Admittedly the series above are slightly different beasts (partly by virtue of having series rather than just being constantly on), but they seem "worthy" of the title.

No, THIS is what going mad feels like.

(Growing up in the 80s was unspeakably awesome, I recommend everyone try it.)

Anyone here have crazy mental breakdowns thinking they are watching Firefly, when their friends all notice that your staring off into space and crying watching some lame new show on fox? I DO!!! lol, I'm even complaining screaming random things like "WHY FOX WHYYYYY?!?!?!?!" Needless to say, they don't like watching tv with me much =D
